Cuppa with a Copper
On the back of our No Excuse for Abuse campaign, which is encouraging colleagues across LUHFT to report incidents of violence and aggression that they have experienced, Merseyside Police have been visiting our sites to give tips and advice to staff.
‘Cuppa with a Copper’ has provided colleagues with the opportunity to discuss their concerns about general crimes and issues in the local area with local Police Officers, Police Community Support Officers, and the Security Management Team. Officers present at each informal event all police within the area and as such are able to understand issues faced.
Upcoming events will be posted below.
